Speed reduction

by Kevin James · in Torque Game Builder · 03/28/2005 (6:44 pm) · 6 replies

I put a sprite at the top of the screen, then move it toward the bottom. The speed slows down noticeably. How do I force setLinearVelocityY to be constant?

    The function you're looking for is setConstantForce, I believe..

    What physics datablock are you using?
    Check the friction value on it, either change it or create a new physics datablock with friction set to 0.

    I'm getting the same thing with angular velocity. And changing the friction doesn't seem to help.

    Change damping to 0.
